The Night City, an underground palace built in the mysterious forest on the border of the Western Region, is now not as deserted as before. The arrival of the Long family and the efforts of Long Yujue and Ye Susu to stay made Long Haotian give up his plans and rush to the northern border.
He thought that before he decided to go to Northern Xinjiang because he had nowhere to stay, but now, it seems that the worries no longer exist. Going all the way to Northern Xinjiang, a place he is unfamiliar with, it is better to stay in Yecheng where he has a son and a daughter-in-law. Although that
Ye Gucheng's thoughts are a bit annoying.
Long Haotian was very dissatisfied with Ye Gucheng. Ever since they stayed in Ye City, Ye Gucheng had started to have evil thoughts and tried his best to please his grandson and granddaughter, even his future grandson-in-law, and spared no efforts to win over him.
, whatever gold and silver treasures, precious medicines, weapons, armors, silks and satins, as long as he has them, he would like to give them all to Long Yanhua and Long Xiaochen. Anyone with a discerning eye can understand at a glance that he wants to bribe his family.
Junior, from now on the children should be more partial and inherit the Night Clan.
After seeing Long Yanhua and Long Xiaochen two days ago, Ye Gucheng no longer believed that his youngest son would be able to take charge of the Ye Clan in the future. He felt that the appearance of Long Yanhua and Long Xiaochen was specially sent to him by God.
My precious grandson and granddaughter, there is hope for the successor of the Night Clan.
So on the surface he was very kind to his juniors, and secretly he had many arguments with Long Haotian because of how to distribute his grandchildren. It sounds a bit speechless, but the fact is that the Long family must have successors.
, the Night Clan also needs a successor. At this time, the two old men sat together and had enough quarreling. They began to complain about how their son and daughter only gave birth to four children. The eldest son died young, and now the remaining three are one.
We can't see each other for the time being, and the remaining two are obviously not enough.
Long Haotian couldn't bear to have his grandson and granddaughter taken away by others, but Ye Gucheng looked up to Long Xiaochen and thought highly of him, and saw that Long Yanhua also liked him. For a while, he didn't know who to choose. In fact, both of them
Everyone wants to stay in the Night Clan, but they also understand that this is impossible.
It has been decades since the founding of Night City, and Ye Gucheng is the second clan leader of Night City. Although Night City has only existed for a short period of time, its financial resources are not much weaker than those of any big family in the empire. This is because the Night Clan has been working as a killer since they moved to the dark side.
Business is a lucrative profession that doesn't even require capital. As long as you have strength, you will have money, and as long as you have strength, you will lack nothing. In this regard, Long Yanhua prefers the operation mode of the killer on her grandfather's side.
In recent days, the news that grandpa and grandpa were considering dividing her and her second brother was through her father. She had already known it. I'm afraid the result would not be unexpected. She would be left with grandpa. Now that there is no result, the days of being mixed up are fine. I'm afraid it will really happen.
When it was time to figure out who was whose family, her grandfather would be much nicer to her than to her second brother Long Xiaochen. From the bottom of her heart, she didn't want to be tied up in Night City. How could she settle down without avenging her family's revenge?
In a hidden dark room in the library of Night City, rows of bookshelves list the history of the Western Region, the Southern Region and even the Northern Territory, martial arts, famous figures and strengths, and methods of attack. This is the world where martial arts is respected,
People did not pay attention to the development of culture, but collected all the top ranked masters as valuable information collections. Killers need these more, so when they walked into this first-level darkroom, Long Yanhua had already guessed that he was
He was won over by his grandfather.
"Isn't there some information about monsters and beasts? Night City is built in a mysterious forest, and there are monsters everywhere. How come there are no books about monsters and beasts?" Long Yanhua rummaged around on the bookshelf.
She had been waiting for several hours, but had no clue. Now that she had enough time, she thought of checking the information on the monsters to see if there was any way to wake up the bird and bear.
The Bird Bear had no intention of waking up after sleeping for more than ten days, and its small body was obviously thinner than before. Although Long Yanhua had read in a children's book before that Bears hibernate and need to consume fat to survive the winter, but that
It's winter, and the bird-bear has shrunk in just ten days, and is no longer as skinny as a bear.
She was worried that if things continued like this, something would happen to her monster. No matter what, even if it was evolving, she had to wake it up first.
"Are you looking for information about monsters?" Ye Xiaozi stood in the corner and looked for Long Yanhua's figure for a long time. He saw her standing by the bookshelf, picking up books and flipping through them, but he didn't expect that she was looking for information.
"Yes, do you know where there is information about monsters?"
Long Yanhua seemed to have found a valuable clue, and saw his uncle Ye Xiaozi nodded and answered.
"Of course." Ye Xiaozi pointed to the outside of the darkroom, "They are piled outside."
Long Yanhua originally thought that the monster information was something secret, but after searching for a long time, he realized that he was wrong. Thinking about it, after living in the Mysterious Forest for decades, the people of the Night Clan often encountered monsters.
In their eyes, monsters are the most ordinary existences, just like a butcher in a pig farm. He looks at the pigs every day. In his eyes, every pig looks the same. If he slaughters too many, he will take it lightly and it will no longer be strange.
.
Long Yanhua knew that this metaphor was not appropriate, especially comparing pigs with monsters, but the fact was that monsters were as plain as boiled water in the hearts of the Ye people. Therefore, Long Yanhua believed that the precious monster information should be stored in
In the secret darkroom, but it is not the case, those materials are like cabbage that no one wants, being placed in a mess and unorganized in the library for public use by the Night Clan.
Led by Ye Xiaozi, she finally found what she needed. Long Yanhua began to carefully read the books about monsters. The day passed quickly, and there was no sun or moon underground. At about ten o'clock in the evening, Lin Yiyun came to pick her up.
He was forcibly pulled out of the library.
It's not a bad thing for Long Yanhua to concentrate on reading, but Lin Yiyun couldn't accept it, but he ignored his body, read the information and forgot to eat.
It seemed that because it was confirmed that Long Yanhua would become a descendant of the Ye clan, Ye Gucheng no longer tried hard to win over Long Xiaochen, but his goal was to become the man Long Yanhua liked, Lin Yiyun. Lin Yiyun spent the whole day talking to him.
Chatting with my future 'grandfather', of course, all this is involuntary.
Before he was called away by Ye Gucheng, Ye Xiaozi promised to take good care of Long Yanhua, but in the evening Lin Yiyun finally left Ye Gucheng. When he found Long Yanhua, he saw a tired look on her face.
Apparently she had been reading the information for too long and her body was overloaded. When asked, she found that no water had entered the smoke all day long. Lin Yiyun's face turned cold. Ye Xiaozi felt a chill running up his back, and his body
After shaking, he immediately made an excuse and slipped away. Long Yanhua was also forcefully carried out of the library by Lin Yiyun. He decided that he could not stay here any longer.
For four and a half days, Long Yanhua, with the help of Lin Yiyun, read through most of the books related to monsters and beasts in the Night City library, but still found no information about birds and bears, and had never heard of monsters evolving.
In this regard, although humans do not fully understand monsters, at least the monsters that are understood have strict restrictions on species and levels.
Outside the library, the footsteps on the stone corridor came slowly from far to near, and the frequency was high, indicating that someone was running quickly.
The wooden door creaked and someone pushed it open from the outside. Ye Xiaozi ran over in a hurry, "Long Yanhua, my father and your grandfather are fighting!"
After hearing this, Long Yanhua raised his head slightly, glanced lightly, and said "Oh~~" indispensably. He thought in his heart, just fight. Depending on the way the two get along, sooner or later they will find out in this encounter.
, but with their father and mother around, even if they were to fight, they wouldn't hit too hard.
The wild boy took a few steps closer, "Aren't you worried? Your grandpa is already an old man..."
"Your dad is about the same." After all, in Long Yanhua's heart, she is closer to her grandpa than her grandpa. She came to this world and spent too much time with her grandpa, while she only met her grandpa for a few days.
"You! -" Ye Xiaozi was blocked and speechless, and he was furious, "Are you really not worried? Well, you just wait to be locked up in Night City by my father and never be free!"
"What did you say?!" At this time, Long Yanhua finally became concerned, "Why does grandpa want to lock me up? Even if he wants me to stay and take over Ye Cheng in the future, it won't restrict my freedom?"
"Huh? You know?" Ye Xiaozi was stunned. Only his lack of consideration could not tell the direction of the matter in advance, so that the result. "But even if you know, you seem to have mistakenly thought that dad is
I want to keep you, but it is not you who will inherit Night City, but me! I am dad’s biological son. Even if I am not as good as you, you are still a person with a foreign surname. Although dad has said something about wanting the younger generation to inherit Night City.
It's a matter of fact, but that's just talk, can't you take it seriously?"
Ye Xiaozi folded his arms in front of his chest and arrogantly criticized Long Yanhua's ignorance one by one. After finishing speaking, he revealed the reason, "My father wants me to marry you, oh my god, how can I marry you?"
Such a vicious, cruel and violent woman!"
'Swish -' A two-width silver-white long sword with a sharp blade was placed on Ye Xiaozi's neck. Lin Yiyun did not know when he had stood behind Ye Xiaozi. The sword's blade was balanced. It was obvious that it was not just for scaring people.
, Long Yanhua knew that if Ye Xiaozi said another wrong word, the long sword might really strike through his neck, and when he fell, his head would roll to the ground.
Ye Xiaozi exclaimed, "What are you doing!" He remained motionless as he spoke, for fear that Lin Yiyun might hurt him if he didn't pay attention.
A cold warning sounded, "Watch your words." It seemed that the blade was getting colder and colder, which made Ye Xiaozi tremble in shock.
Long Yanhua finally turned his attention to the topic, "You mean grandpa wants you to marry me? I already have someone I like. Besides, this... is too ****!"
